| Description of the problem | Manual transmission becomes inoperative without warning due to problem addressed in recall 16v302000. I am receiving absolutely no response from fiat other then to say the parts to fix the problem are unavailable. I was told that in june and it is now mid-august with no further update from fiat despite assurance that they would provide one. This recall if left to the indifferent attitude displayed by chrysler- fiat is going to cause a fatal accident. My vehicle became completely disabled with absolutely no warning but fortunately i had just started the car to leave and was not going 60 mph in heavy traffic. I was lucky. |
